First, I live somewhere near Anoka, Minnesota. Second, thanks for everyone that has been willing to explain and answer my questions, I really do appriciate it and it does make a lot more sense. For some reason it makes it easier to understand when ya hear it from multiple people. The very last comment before this post asks why my boyfriend shouldn't be able to protect himself from my crazy x while we are together and I want to make it clear than I in NO WAY said that he shouldn't or can't and I want him to be able to defend himself. As I said before I just didn't understand why parting with a firearm for a day or an hour in specific places would cause someone to be so uncomfortable. And I do realize that crazy people can show up at any point in time. I was no trying to anger anyone at alland I hope you all know that I support you all very much. I've always been for and supported home defense and this carry thing is just new to me so I am only trying to collect information and understanding.
I do understand a lot of things better now because of all you answering my questions, so thank you!! Someone said in an earlier post that where we live may be particularly hostile when it comes to open carriers and I think that's slightly true where we live. He has had several people approach him and been thrown around by cops who don't know the law. Carry is pretty uncommon here and openly carrying is even more uncommon. Besides my boyfriend I havn't seen a single person carrying in any of the places that I've been in my entire life (besides police officers).
So again, thanks for all the advice/explainations. Lots of you had great things to say and most of you seem to be great at educating the curious =) Much appriciation!!
